Sleeping together wasn't a preference—it was a survival strategy against predators, cold, and danger.

One person sleeping alone in the ancient world was just a predator's easiest meal of the week. Community wasn't a preference — it was the security system. 🔥 We privatized sleep, bought noise machines to simulate silence, and then wondered why anxiety spiked.
